What month is late spring?

Late spring is the third month of the lunar calendar.

Spring is divided into three stages: Meng Chun, mid-spring and late spring. Early spring is the first month of spring, which includes two solar terms, namely beginning of spring and rain. Midspring is the second month after the Meng Chun in the lunar calendar, which includes two solar terms, namely, the fright and the vernal equinox. The end of spring is the first period of spring, and the third month of the lunar calendar includes two solar terms, namely Qingming and Grain Rain.

Spring, one of the four seasons, lies between beginning of spring and long summer. Spring represents warmth and growth. In spring, the qi of yin and yang begins to change, and everything germinates and grows with the rise of yang. Late spring is the last stage of spring, that is, March of the lunar calendar, when there is more rain. There is a poem called "Late Spring": No one asks about the falling flowers outside the door, and Ran Ran is all over the world. The forest shadow sings silently, and the spring grass pond listens to frogs alone.

Introduction of solar terms in late spring

1, Qingming, "Qingming" was originally the fifth solar term in the twenty-four solar terms, "Spring begins with spring, and Qingming Valley Day". Twenty-four solar terms are outstanding representatives of agricultural civilization in China, which not only plays a guiding role in agricultural production, but also affects people's basic necessities of life and cultural concepts. The solar terms are determined by the bucket handle direction of the Big Dipper. Bucket handle starts from "Yin position" and rotates clockwise for one year. When the bucket handle points to "B position", it is clear.

2. Grain Rain is the sixth solar term among the 24 solar terms and the last solar term in spring. Grain Rain is taken from the meaning of "Rain gives birth to hundreds of valleys". At this time, the precipitation in the mausoleum has increased significantly. The seedlings in the field are newly planted, and the crops in Xinzhuang need rain most. With sufficient and timely rainfall, cereal crops can thrive.
